Does Your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty Suspension Need Inspection?

During the first few years you had your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your F-350 Super Duty bounces, sways to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We'll pinpoint the problem.

The expert technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care will begin with an inspection to find out what's really going on. We’ll take a look at the front and rear end suspension, shock dampeners, springs, CV joints and axles, struts, bushings, chassis, wheel hub bearings, and power steering components. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your F-350 Super Duty suspension system needs repair, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work. If your Ford F-350 Super Duty’s suspension or steering system components need to be replaced due to wear and tear, we may also recommend a wheel alignment since replacing steering and suspension parts can change existing wheel angles and ride height.

Shock & Strut Replacements for Your Ford F-350 Super Duty

Struts and shocks are a vital part of your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty’s suspension. They help you stay in control as your car handles bumpy roads and uneven terrain. Shocks keep the car from bouncing too much and struts support the structure of the suspension. These components work together to limit vibration and keep your Ford up off the ground. But there’s no set schedule for getting your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty’s shocks and struts replaced since many factors affect how fast and severely they wear. A bouncy ride, side-to-side swaying, or rocking back and forth could all be indicators of worn Ford F-350 Super Duty shocks and struts. It’s a smart move to get your F-350 Super Duty’s shocks and struts routinely inspected by an ASE-certified technician. Save yourself the shock of steering and suspension problems by scheduling an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Questions About 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty Steering & Suspension

  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my F-350 Super Duty's steering and suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also alert you to the need for new tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
  • Why should my Ford F-350 Super Duty get regular tire rotations and wheel alignments? Regularly rotate tires and adjust wheel alignment. Rotations and alignments involve minor tweaks that have a major impact. Such services help ensure that the right amount of pressure is being applied to your tires and that the tires connect with the road how Ford intended.
  • Does my Ford F-350 Super Duty power steering fluid need to be checked? Get your power steering fluid check out when you get an oil change or every couple of months. If your F-350 Super Duty is low on power steering fluid, we’ll top it off per Ford's guidelines to help your suspension perform optimally.
  • Why does my Ford F-350 Super Duty bounce so much? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your F-350 Super Duty goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my F-350 Super Duty front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your F-350 Super Duty when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
  • How can I tell if the shocks on my Ford F-350 Super Duty are bad? Worn shock absorbers can’t absorb road bumps well, making your F-350 Super Duty feel like it’s leaning or swaying when you turn. You may also experience more shaking, rocking, or bouncing than usual as your F-350 Super Duty travels over minor bumps.
